    was bored so...

    I found a good Rob Roy style Sporran pattern with great detail and made my first. It's very plain because I'll be using it as a "side/back pouch" when I'm Bagpiping, so it's utilitarian in appearance.

    The bag leather and gusset is black pig skin splits, finished on one side and suede on the other. The front reinforcement piece and back brace/front flap section was made from scrap I had laying around. I think it's 6oz leather and would have used something thicker, had I had any around...lol. I made the button from a Whitetail antler I had laying around and the cordage is black 550 paracord.

    I used my Brother sewing machine for the entire bag and it went together very nicely.

    To buy one like this can cost between $80 and $200...depending on several factors like linings, stampings, leather types, internal pockets, etc. The pig skin cost me a whopping $16 and the thread I already had .

      So you used your sewing machine to make a purse for when you are wearing your skirt while blowing some pipes?
